If you use ArcGIS Hub or ArcGIS Enterprise Sites, you may have to change ownership of a site you own or someone else’s site in cases where responsibility changes hands. For a smooth transition of site content from one person to another, you can now use a simple Python script to automate this process. Install the ArcGIS Hub Python API   Hub’s Python API (`arcgishub`) allows you to automate several ArcGIS Hub workflows using simple Python scripts. To get started, check out the ArcGIS Hub Python Library. For installation, refer to the Steps to Install. These steps also work for installing it in a notebook instance of ArcGIS Notebooks.  Run the script to automate ownership transfer  The two-step process to reassign an initiative or site to a new user is as demonstrated below. You start by first fetching the initiative or site and then assigning it to a new user. Click on the below image to see this example guide.  Before you get started, review the following:  Only the administrator of an organization has privileges to perform this task.  ` target_owner` must be the username of a user who belongs to the same organization. If you wish to add this initiative to another organization, you may clone it instead.  If you have sites created with ArcGIS Hub Basic or ArcGIS Enterprise, you can reassign them to another user using the same process with a slight change in the first step. You will fetch the site instead of initiative from the collection of sites (`myhub.sites.get(itemid)`).  Manual workflow To complete this process manually, follow these steps:  Sign in to ArcGIS Hub or ArcGIS Enterprise Sites as an administrator or site owner.   On the overview page, click Sites (or Initiatives if you’re using ArcGIS Hub Premium).   Open the site you want to transfer.  Ensure that the new owner is a member of the core team by clicking the site's second dropdown menu and choosing Teams.   Open the site’s core team and click the add team members button to add the new site owner to the group.   Next, open ArcGIS Online by clicking the more button and clicking Edit in ArcGIS Online. You will complete the remainder of the workflow in ArcGIS Online. Ensure that the new owner has an ArcGIS account with your ArcGIS Online organization (or Enterprise Portal) and has at least the minimum privileges to create and manage sites or initiatives.   Click on the new owner’s name and choose View Profile. Click View Settings and Licenses and look for the role.    If you need to adjust the role, follow the steps provided in Assign a default role (for administrators) or Configure a custom role (initiative/site managers) if you don’t have this role set up yet. Un-share each item in the core team in ArcGIS Online. Items belonging to a Shared update group (groups that grant edit access to its members) cannot have their ownership changed until they are removed from the group.  Click the My Groups tab and open the core team group.   Click the item’s sharing icon.  Click Edit group sharing. d. Un-check the checkbox for the group and click OK. Next, reassign item ownership to the new owner. This includes the Hub Site Application item and if you’re using ArcGIS Hub Premium, the Hub Initiative item. You cannot use the python script to reassign ownership of Survey123 items, but you can change their ownership manually in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise.   Click the sharing icon and choose View item details.  On the item details page, click Change owner. Select the new owner and click Save. Share each item back to the core team group by clicking on the item’s sharing icon and clicking Edit group sharing. Note: It isn’t necessary to change the ownership of items belonging to the content and followers group, unless you are the item owner and need to transfer responsibility to the new owner.   Repeat the process of removing items from the core team, re-assigning their ownership and sharing them back to the core team.  Once all items have been shared to the core team group, change the ownership of the core team group  to the new owner.  Click My Groups and select the group to open its group details page. Click Change owner and select the new owner.  Repeat the steps for reassigning group ownership for the content group and any additional groups added to the site using the groups manager. If you’re using ArcGIS Hub Premium, this includes reassigning ownership of the followers group.   For more information, see the ArcGIS Hub documentation.   Related Python scripts  Cloning an initiative within the same organization  Cloning an initiative in another Hub organization  Cloning a site between ArcGIS Hub (Basic/Premium) and ArcGIS Enterprise    ...

UPDATE: Previous versions of this article stated that consent notice and product footer functionality would be released on March 30th, 2021. This post has been updated to reflect a new release data of April 1st, 2021.     Having views and sessions data is useful to understanding how your Hub sites perform over time. ArcGIS Hub collects this data for you using Hub Activity Tracking, optional tracking that powers your site's dashboard and helps us to improve ArcGIS Hub features and functionality. In addition to this out-of-the-box tracking, you can also add a tracking ID to your site's settings to analyze performance in Google Analytics.    New privacy measures, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), establish guidelines for how site owners inform visitors of the tracking services they use. For this reason, the Hub team is releasing new settings on Tuesday April 1st, 2021 designed to help you follow policy regulations around tracking and consent when using Hub Activity Tracking and/or your own provider tracking. These updates include the following:  A consent notice A consent notice allows visitors to accept or reject any Hub Activity Tracking and/or Google Analytics tracking used on a site. This consent notice will not appear to visitors upon arrival unless you enable it in your site’s settings. The notice will always be available to visitors so that they can review or modify their selection by clicking the Manage Privacy link in the new product footer.     Copy is provided for sites using Hub Activity Tracking and includes a link to the Esri Privacy Statement. You can optionally add your own disclaimer text and privacy policy link to the notice. If the site doesn't use any tracking, the notice informs visitors that they're not being tracked. By default, the consent notice adopts your site’s theme, but you can change its styling to black and white. A product footer On the day of release, a new gray product footer will appear below any custom footer on all new and existing sites, pages, and views. Whether the site uses tracking or not, this low-profile footer cannot be removed, ensuring that visitors always have convenient access to a Manage Privacy link for viewing the site’s consent notice.   For additional resources, see Tracking and consent FAQs.

ArcGIS Hub includes templates, a way for you to activate pre-designed applications, sites, surveys, and more. If you want to configure the Economic Development Explorer from the Grow your Local Economy template or the Community Pride App from the Increasing Community Pride template, you can configure items with your own data or data from Esri Living Atlas.   For the Economic Development Explorer This interactive application allows people to learn more about business and growth opportunities in your community. The following Living Atlas data are recommended for configuring the explorer: Who lives here   Tapestry Spending by Industry Retail USA Retail Goods Spending     USA Retail Opportunity (2017 Data in 2020 Geography)     USA Clothing/Accessory Store Market Opportunity (2017 Data in 2020 Geography)   Food and Beverage USA Organic Food Consumption     USA Fruits and Vegetables Spending     USA Alcoholic Beverage Spending     USA Food Spending (Away from Home)     USA Restaurant Spending     USA Grocery Store Market Opportunity (2017 Data in 2020 Geography)   Health USA Health Insurance Spending   Personal USA Home Improvement Spending     USA Pet Spending     USA Child Care Spending     USA Education Spending Population Indicators   USA Unemployment Rate     USA Median Age     USA Diversity Index     USA Average Household Size     USA Medical Insurance Coverage     USA Median Home Value     USA Median Household Income     USA Median Disposable Income     USA Per Capita Income     5 year USA Population Growth   Lifestyle USA Adults That Exercise Regularly     USA Facebook Users     USA Long Commute Time to Work   Safety USA Property Crime     USA Personal Crime     USA Crime Index   You can also provide your own data to recreate other interactive portions of the application.
